The Jamestown Campus Student Senate meetings are dedicated to Club Council on the last Monday of each month. Club Council provides a forum for every chartered club and student organization to report what they’ve been working on and announce upcoming events and service projects. They also exchange ideas, network, and receive leadership training.

Attendance at Club Council is required by one representative from each Jamestown Campus and North County Center club, and more than one absence per semester may result in club funds being frozen or restricted. Jamestown Campus clubs attend Club Council in the Lenna Theatre (HULT 142) at noon. North County clubs attend via distance learning.

Clubs on the Cattaraugus County Campus are encouraged to seek assistance and training from Student Senate and Campus Life office.
